I have kidnapped your girlfriend! Now do as I say, and watch this week’s video if you want to see her again!

Today’s video features one of the more ridiculous scenarios I’ve been a party to filming. I’m not sure quite what the relationship between LeFarge and Ethan is in this video, nor what event set their rivalry in motion. What do these fellows do when they’re not engaging in felony-related hijinks? That’s a very good question.

As has become the standard for any video in which we require a somewhat seedy-underbelly style location for a shoot, we shot this sketch in the basement of the Victoria Event Centre. It’s a great place, but that basement most definitelty meets all of one’s unsavory-location needs.

A big thanks also to Graham’s mother for playing the role of Ethan’s mother the video. There no one who can bring ‘Graham’s mom’ to a role quite like Graham’s mom herself.

Checkpoint this week is titled “Patently Silly” and can be found here on PATV.

As of the writing of this post today’s Unskippable isn’t yet live, but I’ll update with a link when it’s online.

Cheers!

This week’s video is up, and you can find it here.

Our good friend Cam makes a return in this video, playing one of the more magnificent bastards I’ve ever seen. The video was scripted some time ago, and Kathleen asked if I wanted to read through it one evening when we were hanging out. Given the people that happened to be present at the time it fell to Cam to read a part, and from that point forward we knew he had to be in the video.

The video was shot in several locations over the course of two days. Locations include a laboratory that we were granted access to by a friend, UVic (of course) and our own office.

Unskippable this week is Venetica – Part 1. You can find that here.

Also, Checkpoint Episode 3 is Up on PATV.

Cheers!

So, while we wait for our mysterious “new thing” to go live, I thought I’d let you know that this week’s LRR video has gone live. You can watch it here.

You may notice the return of a certain devilishly handsome friend of ours in this one so you really ought not to miss it.

Unskippable is live now as well, and you can find it here. Today’s cutscene comes from the game Sherlock Holmes vs Jack the Ripper.

Cheers, folks, and check back soon for news about our “new thing” here when it goes live.

Cash Cats

IZ IT CAN BE VIDEO TIEM NAO!? CAN HAZ.

It’s a new commodoreHUSTLE! With Cats!

In keeping with the HUSTLE series, this is again based loosely on real events. Yes, Kathleen’s cat Annika starred in a video on the internet featuring him with his head stuck in a bag (you can find that here). Yes, said website does pay for videos, and yes, we have previously tried to leverage that to our advantage. Also true: I am not a cat person. The internet may be, but I most certainly am not. Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate cats, I just don’t really have any use for them. As per the video, if some catastrophic event suddenly eliminated all cats from this plane of existence, you would find me largely indifferent to the situation. I might celebrate by enjoying a cupcake. Over the several years I’ve known them, I’ve found Kathleen’s cats very tolerable, but they’ve never really managed to win me over. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be over here cuddling my puppy. Daww.

Unskippable this week was Atelier Rorona. You can catch that here.
